What would you do if your daughter, off to Mesopotamia on an archaeological dig for an unspecified period of time, made you guardian of a tousled, obstinate, intractable dog? Such was the dilemma of George Preble Watson, a man struggling with the death of his beloved wife and failing grades in dog deportment. Hoping somehow that sympathy for his grave-site grieving would make the animal more tractable, George took the dog on regular visits to the cemetery. At times as he recounted to the silence all that he and his wife had shared, he'd be overcome with sobbing while the dog lay impassive nearby. In more tranquil moments George was quick to reward the dog's infrequent obedience, but as soon as one prank was neutralized another was introduced. The resolution of this standoff is thrown into crisis as both discover that love, even for man and dog, is a work in progress.

Born in 1921, John A Lamb has lived during the time of the most social extremes in the twentieth century. Intermittent wars, depressions, and prosperity have temporarily retarded or stimulated advances in scientific, economic, and equal rights and along the way provided Lamb with perspectives on and opportunities to participate in endeavors ranging over the years from errand boy to corporate counselor. Since retirement, Lamb has counseled college graduates seeking employment, volunteered in prisoner rehabilitation, and worked with street people. After several years of painting he concentrated on writing and completed his autobiography and three novels-the last, Passage to Belle Fourche, was published in 2013.
